256 This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
257 a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
258 you have a system with more than one CPU, say Y.
259
260 If you say N here, the kernel will run on single and multiprocessor
261 machines, but will use only one CPU of a multiprocessor machine. If
262 you say Y here, the kernel will run on many, but not all,
263 singleprocessor machines. On a singleprocessor machine, the kernel
264 will run faster if you say N here.
265
266 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or
267 "Pentium" under "Processor family", the kernel will not work on 486
268 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"
269 architecture may not work on all Pentium based boards.
270
271 People using multiprocessor machines who say Y here should also say
272 Y to "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support", below. The "Advanced Power
273 Management" code will be disabled if you say Y here.

822 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
823 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
824 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
825 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
826
827 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
828 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
829 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
830 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
831 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
832 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
833 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
834 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
835 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
836 down (vital) interrupt lines.

1023 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
1024 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
1025 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
1026 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
1027 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
1028 "high memory".
1029
1030 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
1031 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
1032 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
1033 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
1034 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
1035 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1036 possible.
1037
1038 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1039 answer "4GB" here.
1040
1041 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1042 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1043 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1044 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1045 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1046 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1047
1048 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1049 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1050 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1051 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the
1052 kernel at boot time.)

1081 If the address range available to the kernel is less than the

1084 than low memory, as it needs to be mapped into the kernel first.
1085 Note that increasing the kernel address space limits the range
1086 available to user programs, making the address space there
1087 tighter. Selecting anything other than the default 3G/1G split

1346 ---help---
1347 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1348 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1349 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1350 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1351 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1352 coprocessor or this emulation.
1353
1354 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1355 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1356 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1357 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1358 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1359 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1360 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1361 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1362
1363 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1364 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

506f1d07
SR
1372 ---help---
1373 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1374 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1375 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1376 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1377 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1378 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1379 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1380 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1381 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1382
1383 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1384 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1385 as well:
1386
1387 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1388 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1389 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1390 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1391 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1392 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1393 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1394
1395 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1396 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1397 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1398
1399 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1400 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1544 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.

1546 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1547 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1548 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1549 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1550 address.
1551
1552 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1553 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1554 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1555 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1556 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1557 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1558 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1559 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.

1561 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1562 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1563 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1564 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1565 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1566 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1567 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1568 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1569 for more details about crash dumps.
506f1d07
SR
1570
1571 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1572 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1573 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1574 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1575 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1576 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1577 line.

1747
1748 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1749 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1750 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1751 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1752
1753 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1754 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1755 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to

1761
1762 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is

1794 specification: "When disabled, the APM BIOS does not automatically
1795 power manage devices, enter the Standby State, enter the Suspend
1796 State, or take power saving steps in response to CPU Idle calls."
1797 This driver will make CPU Idle calls when Linux is idle (unless this
1798 feature is turned off -- see "Do CPU IDLE calls", below). This
1799 should always save battery power, but more complicated APM features
1800 will be dependent on your BIOS implementation. You may need to turn
1801 this option off if your computer hangs at boot time when using APM
1802 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn
1803 this off if you have a NEC UltraLite Versa 33/C or a Toshiba

1805 this feature.

1811 On some machines, this can activate improved power savings, such as
1812 a slowed CPU clock rate, when the machine is idle. These idle calls
1813 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,
